We taped the pilot last night and watched it this evening. I enjoyed it, I'm curious about the rest of the series.

Plus, c'mon, Alan Tudyk.

I believe I would have thought it superb if I hadn't seen all the previews. I could have moved right into the second episode. I like what they've kept of the original and also the slight differences that allow them to go in more directions.

Apparently the pilot of Serenity didn't bite it after all and he resumed his duties as a Visitor. Boy, he sure fooled Malcolm all that time.

Ahh, I didn't watch it closely enough to notice Wash. I'm not sure I care for the whole "They've been among us for years" idea. I'll continue watching it for now but there's a great big hollow pit in my stomach filled with dread of failure of the show.

They being here for years is the same premise as the original! I'm glad they brought up the obvious in the first episode of why they didn't just kill the humans off right away with their superior technology. And the betrayals, traitors and paranoia right out the gate... so far, so good for me.

That would have been awkward... but so very awesome.

Wow, I've seen Scott Kurtz (PvPOnline) go off on people before but he wasn't pulling punches on this one:

From: Larry Ernst (learnst@wizardent.com)
to: Scott Kurtz

Dear Kurt,

I hope things are well and business is good.

We wrapped up Big Apple Comic Con a couple of weeks ago and are now focused on our 2010 shows.

Our next show is in Toronto in March and then in Anaheim. The Anaheim dates are April 16th-18th. I have attached the form for reserving space in Anaheim and hope you can join us. As you will see, there are no drayage fees.

The celebrity list will grow substantially in the coming weeks but we have confirmed the attendance of Eliza Dushku from Dollhouse.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

All the best,

Larry

Dear Larry,

First of all my name is not Kurt. It’s Scott. Scott Kurtz. It’s written right there in the email you just pretended to send me. Not that my name’s important or that you are actually aware of who you’re addressing. I’m a pioneer in my field and a “tastemaker” with a large podium, why would it be important to get my name right? Let’s not dawdle on such mundane details.

Your conventions are total horseshizzle, so it’s wise to stop branding them with the name Wizard. But no amount of polishing is going to make me want to attended any of the 5 turds your company is going to crap out in 2010, especially when you schedule them against other shows in some bullshizzle dick measuring contests that serves no other purpose but to fracture an already dying industry that I have nostalgic ties to.

Remember Mike Wieringo? Remember how you guys only cared about him when he was the “hot artist” for a window of time and then you quickly forgot his name despite the fact that he was producing some of the best work of his career on Fantastic Four with Mark Waid? And then remember how after he died you had the balls to name one of your panel rooms the Mike Wieringo room? I will eternally hate everyone associated with your company for that. For eternity. For Jack Kirby’s version of Eternity where the concept is embodied as a giant man made up of the universe. That’s me, hating you for the Mike Wieringo thing. Forever.

Maybe if you cared enough to actually get my name right, or maybe if you cared about creators like the late, great Mike Wieringo beyond what they can do for you THIS FIVE MINUTES, the entire industry wouldn’t all be anticipating your inevitable bankruptcy.

Give Dushku my best. She’s pretty hot and Dollhouse is alright. Otherwise, shove everything else up your ass.

Best.

p.s. please take of me off the comp list for your retarded super-hero boobs magazine.
